Melbourne, Mar 18 : Tourism Queensland has asked the Russian `Best Job in the World' candidate to explain her alleged involvement in a porn scandal.

However, they have received no reply till now.

"We have had no formal communication from her," the Courier Mail quoted TQ''s executive director of marketing and Best Job project head, Steve McRoberts, as saying.
